For al the people who called me a racist and a bigot yet you do not KNOW anything because just like i said from the start these brothers are part of a groqwing trend amongst the middle eastern store owners to scam us out of our lottery winners and the 2 brothers were ARRESTED just like i said they would be because they are scammers. THANK YOU VERY MUCH

Sounds like your having more sour grapes with people that disagreed with you.

Are you so accustomed to being disagreed with, that you become this over sensitive.

These forums are designed to encourage debate, disagreements and a lively exchange of ideas.

Try and have a good time, roll with the punches and don't be so concerned with other peoples opinions.

Comment #140

mcginnin56 — Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:59:34 GMT

The true winner (49 year old maintenance worker) was duped into thinking he had won just $5k, the brothers offered him $4k to avoid taxes.

The true winner may be eligible for six years of past lottery installments right away. ($250k per year for twenty years was the annuity).

This is a huge score for justice, thank God the lottery officials never gave up their hunt for the real winner

Who the hell waits 6 years to turn in a scratch off worth $5,000,000.

RedStang — Sat, 20 Oct 2012 22:47:24 GMT

From a NY website---Postscript: If you're wondering why Andy's scratch-off ticket

didn't expire, it's because there are different rules for scratch-off

tickets. Scratch-off series could have multi-year runs. In New York,

scratch-off tickets expire one year after the series is expired. Andy

cashed his ticket in 11 days prior to it expiring.

Sadly, there would be those who would not be pleased with this good news.

There is another party that would like to continue this multi-trillion dollar debt, and to import all citizens from around the world to live here.

I'm not totally against nearly 7 billion people living here in the US, just concerned about the long lottery lines.

The Patel is already unconscious, the wash board thrashing, is to generate a refreshing breeze to gently revive him.

Once revived, he will be escorted to the nearest Patel export station, where he will be shipped back to his motherland. (COD).

Oh crap.....I have been buying that ticket trying to win big for over 6 years thinking that winner was still out there somewhere!

I hope they enjoyed the past six years because karma is coming to kick them in the butt.

I definately think they are up to no good. The fact that they still kept that little grocery store open for business in a

tough area is only so the Lottery officials could do the investigation and find nothing.

They had to wait 6 years so their names could be legally changed from Patel to Ashwar.
